Crime fiction is the gift that keeps giving. Why not send an issue or two of RHP to that person in your life who can't get enough stories of people on the edge, people making bad decisions? Buy an issue today: bit.ly/3MbYXOk

SUBS WINDOW OPENS TOMORROW! For January, give us noir about dreams. Maybe it’s petty dreams about gangland glory. Let’s kick off 2026 by taking a look at “what dreams may come,” and what happens next when all your dreams come true . . . or don’t. Subs open from Dec 1-4: bit.ly/4fQLeGx

Every introvert on my timeline shuddering at that story about Target requiring employees to smile & make eye contact if a customer gets near them. If I still shopped there, I'd be plotting a course through the aisles that avoided all employees like a real-life video game. So many levels of bad 🙃

Nice grocery store score. Takes the sting out of trying to shop in the midst of snowbird season. I 🖤 this book!

Speaking of writing advice, I feel like everything I've been thinking and talking about over the past few days can be boiled down to this.
Go ahead and write the weird shit. Because (waves hands around at everything) at this point, why the fuck not?

Bluesky has been constantly freezing up for weeks, to the point that I can no longer use the app on my phone. Any other android users having this problem?
